Come join us for a slice of Americana with a helping of conservative politics on the side.
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed"

I knew it it was bound to happen soon, the loonbats of Moveon.org took out a full page ad in the NYT using the childish pun on Gen. Petraeus' good name to slander this incredibly honorable man that has spent his adult life in the service of our country. Then the Code Pinko clowns interrupted the hearings several times and a half-dozen were arrested including momma moonbat herself, Cindy Sheehan. They even looked like clowns in their getups and signs, folks this the Democrat Party today. As Hugh Hewitt put it on his show, Moveon is not a surrogate of the DNC, the DNC is their surrogate and lap puppy, bought and paid for by George Soros and his socialist minions. I hope they keep it up hot and heavy because Americans will just find them awfully corny and get tired of the nonsense and put the GOP back in power.I have only word the describe the General's testimony, WOW, the same goes for Amb. Crocker. Totally unfased by the surrendercrats idiotic questions that all but called him a liar , they answered with aplomb and a deep well of facts, figures and honest observation from the ground, a place the General has been for three years. The funniest part was Loretta Sanchez lecturing the General out of a book he wrote "The Counterinsurgency Manual", If I were he ,I would have laughed and "I wrote the book Ma'am,thanks for quoting it" . I don't know how he kept his poker face, must play alot it.Lots of analysis, pictures, liveblogging, transcripts and video links at Townhall blog , the Tank, Michelle Malkin, The Corner, HotAir and quite a few others I am sure, those are just the ones I have been too so far. I did get to see the first half of it myself then I had to go meet with a client.Courtesy of HotAir a clip of Brit Hume with Gen. Petaeus and Amb. Crocker.

General Petreaus is a man of extreme class, Goat. I'm afraid I would have been tempted to laugh and say "I wrote that book" too! LOL!

The Code Pink idiots looked exactly like what they are... idiots! I love that they were quickly ejected from the room. I'm also quite grateful I wasn't sitting back there when they started to screech like the moonbats they are. I'm afraid I may have lost it. At times like that I'm afraid I have a hard time being a good Christian! I'm extremely angry with some people who so blithely call themselves Americans and do nothing to earn the priviledge, all the while disrespecting those who keep them safe!

Founder"s Quote

Contemplate the mangled bodies of your countrymen, and then say, 'What should be the reward of such sacrifices?' Bid us and our posterity to bow the knee, supplicate the friendship, and plough, and sow, and reap, to glut the avarice of the men who have let loose on us the dogs of war, to riot in our blood and hunt us from the face of the earth? If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animating contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!"- Samuel Adams

"It is in vain, sir, to extentuate the matter. Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace--but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"---Patrick Henry
